Re: [PATCH] Debian packaging for 0.99.4

Possibly related (same subject, not in this thread)

I just noticed from "dpkg --info" output that the generated
git-tk has "Architecture: i386".  Shouldn't it read "all" and
resulting package also named git-tk_${VERSION}_all.deb, instead
of whatever architecture I happened to build it?
It is correct to have Architecture: i386, as you'd naturally have
multiple binary packages. When this is uploaded to the Debian archive,
all the other architectures are built in the "buildd" farm. That's why
the source package 'native' arch is 'any'.

Packages with arch 'all' are interpreted languages. The cogito package
will probably be for 'all' arches, and just be one binary package.

cheers,
